This report describes the results of a series of experiments to evaluate cockpit Input/Output devices for Data Link as Phase I of a larger project to explore all facets of the digital transmission of air traffic control information. Following preliminary laboratory experiments to investigate optimum means of formatting and presenting information, p

An evaluation of candidate cockpit Data Link input/output (I/O) devices using airline flight simulators was conducted. The opinions of airline pilots regarding Air Traffic Control by Data Link were obtained. Three full complements of I/O devices were evaluated. The complements were differentiated by the presence of (1) a visual short message ATC (S

One and two-man crews of general aviation pilots and two-man crews of FAA/NAFEC test pilots made a series of simulated flights in a GAT-2 simulator to evaluate various complements of I/O equipment for Data Link. In the earlier experiments in the series, uplink messages have been limited to short ATC commands and advisories, and downlink capabilitie

Eight two-man crews of FAA/NAFEC test pilots made four runs each in a GAT-2 simulator to evaluate four displays presenting short-message ATC commands and advisories. The counterbalanced experimental design was later replicated with eight crews of airline and ALPA pilots; and a single crew of AOPA pilots provided further data. Response-time measurem
